CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-003) — Question 352

A security analyst is reviewing the following company requirements prior to selecting the appropriate technical control configuration and parameter:

RTO: 2 days -

RPO: 36 hours -

MTTR: 24 hours -

MTBF: 60 days -
Which of the following solutions will address the RPO requirements?

Answer options

• A. Remote Syslog facility collecting real-time events
• B. Server farm behind a load balancer delivering five-nines uptime
• C. Backup solution that implements daily snapshots
• D. Cloud environment distributed across geographic regions

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct choice, C, is a backup solution that employs daily snapshots, which aligns with the RPO of 36 hours by ensuring data is backed up at least every 24 hours. Option A does not address data recovery in terms of backups, option B focuses on uptime rather than data recovery points, and option D, while resilient, does not specifically meet the RPO requirement as it does not guarantee regular backups.
